403 forbidden error while accessing magento connect manager in magento 1.8

Question

I got 403 error in magento 1.8 admin while I trying to access magento connect manager under configuration->tools

I also try to re-save administration roles under configuration->permissions->roles . What should I need to do overcome this error ?

Answer 1

check .htaccess file in downloader directory. I think IP will be restricted in that. or else once replace htaccess from original magento's htaccess. so it will work.
